Overview

Involuntarily-retired Colonel Hyde recruits seven other dissatisfied ex-servicemen for a special project.

The job is a bank robbery, and military discipline and planning are imposed by Hyde and second-in-command Race on the team, although civilian irritations do start getting in the way.
